Parmesan Crusted Chicken Recipe

Parmesan crusted chicken is very quick to prepare if you have made your coating ahead of time and have it stored in the refrigerator, ready to go. If you can’t find pine nuts, try using slivered almonds. The nuts and Parmigiano Reggiano® cheese make a crunchy coating for this Parmesan Crusted Chicken. You can use Dijon mustard or another spicy mustard to coat the chicken breasts. Baking the Parmesan Crusted Chicken breasts in the oven rather than frying them in oil or butter in a pan results in satisfyingly crunchy and tasty chicken that is also low fat.

Crunchy Parmesan crusted chicken served on a plate with fresh asparagus or green beans makes you think spring. Leftover Parmesan Crusted Chicken can be sliced into fingers and served as an appetizer or as a tasty surprise in a bag lunch.
